Computer Vision and IoT-Based Smart System for Visually Impaired People

Abstract

Moving from one location to another is one of the biggest issues that visually impaired individuals have. For these folks, walking canes that are readily accessible solely act as obstacle sensors. Long overdue is the requirement for an affordable guiding and navigation system for the blind. This paper’s major goal is to use ultrasonic technology to broaden the electronic mobility aid for blind and visually impaired walkers. The research described in this article involves designing and implementing an ultrasonic navigation system to offer blind pedestrians completely autonomous obstacle avoidance as well as auditory and tactile feedback. A camera will be used to detect objects higher than knee height. This blind steering method is risk-free, accurate, and efficient.
